#had their mouths agape in shock with varying degrees of other emotions mixed in

im watching adventure time for the first time with my gf and i cannot fucking imagine following it closely as a kid. it goes from silly nonsense to having a bunch of plot which was is very fun to see, and then also just seeing the relationship of marceline and princess bubblegum progress in real time as a child would be incredible. i would go absolutely insane

they have a short interaction where theres implied history between them and that pb maybe doesnt like her. cool. fun little thing. then the next time they properly interact extensively is during "what was missing", which for those who dont remember is the episode "im just your problem" is from, which like. holy shit dude

going from the most they interact is pb saying "hey marceline..." with some disdain in her voice upon seeing her, to pretty strongly implied gay tension between them. what wouldve happened if i saw that as the show was ongoing?? i was 10 years old at the time. that bitch wouldve had like four (4) awakenings at once upon seeing that scene with full context
